New coupé showcases abilities of Japan’s Sivax styling house, and takes cues from Mazda and Lexus.
Which styling house has created this show-stopping beauty? Not Bertone, Pininfarina or any European designer for that matter. In fact, this elegant coupe has come from Japan.
This is the Izana, a jaw-dropping concept from design specialist Sivax. Set to be unveiled at the Paris Motor Show this week, the model showcases the styling firm's abilities. With gullwing doors and looks inspired by Lexus and Mazda, the Izana is sure to draw plenty of admiring glances at the event.
Inside, the concept is trimmed in several unusual textures. Untreated leather features throughout, while copper is also employed on some surfaces. A glass roof allows in plenty of light to give showgoers the best possible view.
The name has been taken from Japanese mythology; the god Izanaginomikoto is said to have created the country's islands.
